The Lewiston land Office does less
business in the way of final proofs than
any other land Office in the northwest.
The rejection of several proofs for nom
fulfilment of residence or other requir
ments of law have occurred lately and
the new questions, while many of them
are impudent, are stringent'enough to
demand absolute compliance with Law
before certificate of proof will issue.
The new questions are designed t.
freeze out the land pirates and specu-
lators and to preserve what little is lett
of the public domain for actual bo a
fde resident settlers.
